Like everyone else who decides to join up as a member, I took the step and did my first post eighteen months ago, and apart from a few sulky or sickly weeks haven't shut up since.
I love Accy Web. It gives everyone a voice to air the views. It doesn't really matter if you can spell or are good with words. Every single person's voice is important, and it's great this forum is a place can be heard.
I'll shut up now before I do a Gwyneth Paltrow and get tear stains on my gown.

And you forgot to add that after a few conversations with somebody you realise you are talking to old ex neighbours !

Re: Congratulations Garinda
It's a bit hard to post on AccyWeb from the middle of a field! I've spent most of the summer in our caravan battling wind rain and mud. I popped home briefly but like Busman said I do visit other forums too and my emails are my main priority.
I don't mind losing karma katex when there's a good reason for it. Losing karma for wishing people could get along with each other without flaming and trolling is a little ironic though don't you think?
I'm not in competition with anyone for number of posts or level of karma. I was dubbed "waffler" not because I made most posts but because I tended to ramble on a bit in the posts I did make.
Over time there have been changes on AccyWeb and there have been times when I've had plenty to say on interesting topics and times when there has been nothing which particularly interested me. At one time the simple chat posts would have been directed to the chat room but it seems that they now flourish more on here and I can't be bothered ploughing through some long threads which are no longer on topic just to find out if anyone has added to the original subject. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing. I do miss AB's photo competitions and some of the old crusading stuff but we never actually got anywhere did we?
I remember Less once saying that fangs aint what they used to be. Maybe there's something to that theory of evolution after all.

It might be the oft quoted theory that things on Accy Web used to be better in 'the old days'.
When I once asked some of the older members at a meet how it was different, I was told it just was better before you joined. Hopefully the two things aren't connected.

Cant be as the panic that was around when you were AWOL due to having a visitor says it all.

Re: Congratulations Garinda
When are you going to stop patting each other on the back, dishing good
brownie points to each other, bad to them that agree to differ.
The thread in anything goes is a prime example of your duplicity karma for
who can talk most s--t.

I notice your karma has shot up recently, so what you say is obviously true!

Think he was referring to my thread on Sewers Wynonie .. that it is a load of sh*te Don't think Ian meant it as anything but a compliment, as he did put the 'cool' smiley behind it, will take it as that, personally, I thought it was extremely educational .. tee hee.
